Who is UL?
Underwriters Laboratories, better known as UL, has existed since 1894 for the express purpose of “promoting safe living and working environments.” UL provides a diverse range of important services, including the establishment of safety and environmental standards, codes, and requirements.
What Does a UL Certification Mean?
Many manufacturers seek UL approval for their products. UL approval means that their goods have been tested and successfully met UL’s benchmarks for safety and quality. According to UL, the typical American home has an average of 125 products bearing the familiar UL stamp of approval – a U and L in a circle – in a visible place. You’ve seen plenty of them, we’re sure.
One place you won’t find the UL stamp is on cheap, Chinese-manufactured voltage converters that are built with inferior components, such as aluminum wire. These products are notorious for catching fire – even exploding – when confronted with wattage and amperage loads they can’t handle. They are pushed out of the factory as quickly and cheaply as is possible, without consideration for the rigorous safety standards that any electrical unit inside your home should have.
